Hotels near Alcaiceria, Granada

"This hotel in Granada is truly charming and rustic. Tucked away in a narrow alley, walking on the cobblestone streets felt like stepping back into medieval Spain. The chandeliers in the lobby, the antique cabinets, and the paintings on the walls all whispered tales of times gone by. The hotel's ambiance gave us a taste of old-world European elegance. The room size was perfectly adequate; we could easily open two suitcases. The small balcony with its floor-to-ceiling window allowed the sunlight to stream in, and the white curtains gently swayed in the breeze, adding a touch of sophistication. Although the bathroom had a bathtub and the facilities felt a bit dated, experiencing such a distinctly European hotel made these minor imperfections fade into the background. Being close to the street, there could be some noise, but earplugs easily solved that. The only thing I found a bit unusual was that the duvet insert was placed between two sheets. I heard many hotels in Europe do this; I even encountered this bedding style in a 5-star hotel in Barcelona. Despite these small quirks, I still fondly remember this historic hotel."

"The location of Ying Lun is excellent. It's just a three-minute walk to the bus stop, and there are plenty of attractions and dining options nearby. It's also very convenient to take public transport to the Alhambra Palace or various viewpoints. Breakfast is an additional charge, but I felt it offered good value for money. It's served from 7 AM on weekdays and 8 AM on weekends. The rooms are a bit dated. The elevator only goes up to the third floor, so guests on the fourth floor and higher need to use the stairs. They don't provide complimentary drinking water. However, as backpackers, we found the room comfortable enough."

"The hotel's location is excellent, right next to the cathedral. It's a short walk to the Alhambra and Albaicín, and there's a Carrefour nearby, along with plenty of cafes. The front desk staff were incredibly welcoming; they gave us great tips on local attractions and recommended some fantastic restaurants. The hotel breakfast was also very generous – definitely one of the best we had on this European trip."

"When I arrived the AC was broken and at the check in the staff didn’t mention it. It has been broken for 4 days (as you can also read from other reviews). We had to sleep with 30 degrees in our room. Just crazy. If they told me right at the check in I would have looked for another hostel. Besides that: Pros: hostel is clean, new and the location is good. Cons: besides few people (there’s a Brazilian receptionist very nice) the staff is not really attentive to people that come in and out. So when you leave your bag in the storage room, is not really safe. (The lockers system is also broken right now). For example I just came in and took back my bags and nobody even realized it. I think this is something that could easily be improved."

"The room was nice and spacious. Luggage could be stored at the front desk. The hotel breakfast was okay, but after staying several nights in a row, I didn't feel like eating it the second day. The air conditioning wasn't very warm, so I caught a bit of a cold."

"Nice hotel"

"If you are just looking for new and clean, the hotel is ok. But if you are looking for something exclusive, then don’t waste your money! I have booked the Level premium room with Terrace, but the room was facing the back alley (instead of city view as described). The check in of the level rooms was on the top floor (level floor) but my room was not on the level floor! One of the 2 lifts was not working."

"The hotel is incredibly small. The front desk staff also manages reception for several other establishments. The location is good, with street views and distant mountains visible from the window. Parking is difficult, but there are plenty of dining options nearby."

"We were a party of three, staying in a room with two single beds and a sofa bed. The cleanliness was acceptable. There's a large supermarket about a 5-minute walk away where we had dinner, and the prices were fair. Right next to the hotel, about a 3-minute walk, there's a bus stop for the bus to Granada Airport, which costs €3.1 per person. You can take bus route 32 to the Alhambra. Walking to the Cathedral takes about 15-20 minutes. Overall, the transportation is convenient. This was the cheapest hotel I stayed at in Spain and offered the best value for money. There's also a restaurant right next to the hotel with delicious food."

"It was my first stay in a bedroom, through the capsule you have much more privacy than it is the case for normal beds. Personal friendly and helpful. Capsule and community spaces very clean. Overall, my expectations were overcome and I would re-elect Urban Cube. However, a few points: the wooden clothing does not protect from noisy snarkers in the room. The top light in the castle did not work, I noticed that there should actually be light there. Normally I am frozen at night, but here it became very warm and stiff, as the capsule has only a fan (no air conditioning) for hot air. The kitchen is clean and well equipped, but the food is uncomfortable because I was too high and the couch table too low."
